Beautiful, Secluded Holiday Villa with Private Pool in Sablet, Vaucluse, France Reviews

A wonderful holiday in a great area of France, staying in just the best house!

The location, situation and facilities were exactly as described and shown in the photos. The house was spotless and beautiful maintained. The owners were so easy and polite to deal with, and so helpful in assisting with best travel arrangements for us to reach Sablet.

We spent our days walking, visiting the local markets, eating out and relaxing by the beautiful pool. There are many more activities in the area if you have the energy!

We would recommend staying at this property to anyone considering Provence for their next vacation. It's a perfect house for family.

A very beautiful house in one of our favourite parts of France. We had the best holiday!

The house is right in the middle of the vineyards, nestled in the Dentelles - just as the advert says. The listing description for this house is 100% accurate.

You can take some fantastic walks and cycle rides straight out of the drive. It's a lovely 10 minute stroll to the lovely villages of Sablet and Seguret - both of which produce delicious wine.

The house is extremely spacious, spotlessly clean, very stylish and comfortable and a perfect place for a family vacation.

The owners were very helpful all through the booking process and then the very efficient House Manager takes over once you arrive at the house.

We whole heartedly recommend this house for your next stay in Provence.

Everything about this vacation was relaxing. From our initial enquiry through to arriving at this perfect house, the owners were very friendly and did everything they could to ensure we had a great stay.

Once we arrived, the wonderful House Manager looked after us. Helping us to familiarise ourselves with our vacation home, checking we had everything we needed, offering suggestions for restaurants and days out.

The house is exactly as detailed on the advert: in the most wonderful setting, surrounded by vineyards and an easy 15-minute walk to the village for daily provisions.

Lots of space inside and outside, spotlessly clean, everything you could possibly need was provided.

We were five adults with two small babies. Cots, highchairs, diaper bins all offered and provided.

The weather was very hot but the pool kept us cool and refreshed. Inside, the house remained cool. We did as the locals do: windows and shutters are kept closed from around 11 am to 6pm. It really worked!

We would love to return.

Would we recommend you stay here? Absolutely - don't hesitate in making a booking!

We were so looking forward to our holiday in Provence and our stay at St Amand and we had the best holiday ever.

The owners were extremely helpful and thoughtful. We received brilliant customer service from the owners and the house manager. The booking process was easy and very professional. The house is exactly as described, but even nicer than the photos show. The house is spotless and spacious with plenty of space for everyone - ideal for families. We were a family of seven, three generations all together, so space was important! The location is just perfect for a relaxing holiday.

We fell in love with the area: visiting the markets, buying wonderful food to cook in the evenings, wine tasting, trying local restaurants, hiking, cycling, swimming in the crystal clear pool - we did it all!

We will return and would recommend this house to anyone looking for a holiday in Provence.

We were delighted with our stay at St Amand. Everything was just as the advert shows.

Dealing with the Owners was a very pleasant experience. They couldn’t do enough for us.

Booking was simple and easy with the Owners keeping in touch at all times, even calling us just before we left Australia to wish us a safe journey!

This is a lived in and loved family home – so it’s very easy to relax from the moment you arrive. The house is light, airy and uncluttered – and exceptionally clean. The beds are so comfortable and the bed linen beautiful. Each of the bathrooms had a very generous supply of towels, along with a hairdryer and shower gel and soap.

If you love cooking, you really will enjoy using the very well equipped kitchen. Shopping for food at the market in Vaison La Romaine was a wonderful experience. We enjoyed plenty of BBQ meals as well sitting by the pool.

The Owners leave plenty of information about the area and a very useful house guide.

We explored the area, enjoyed lots of delicious wine from the area, did a cookery class and enjoyed many pleasant walks, but we also made time to enjoy relaxing by the pool, with pool towels being provided.

Our stay flew by, and we were very sad to have to leave this perfect spot in Provence but we hope to return very soon.

Thank you for sharing your home!

I wanted to take my family on a memorable family holiday so the location and property were important to us. We were not disappointed by either. We had been to the area briefly once before and knew there was lots to see and do particularly for wine lovers. Sitting round the table in the shade lingering over breakfast, lunch or dinner became part of our daily routine. When it all got too hot the fabulous pool was there to cool us off. With a fully equipped kitchen and an outside kitchen area it was much appreciated by the foodie in our group! Four equally sized bedrooms make sure no one has to worry about the box room.... spotlessly clean too! A memorable holiday.

This was the perfect place for meeting up with our grown up family who are scattered around Europe.

The area is stunning and unspoilt; Sablet is a working wine village.

The house is just perfect for families.

We were six adults with plenty of space. It was easy to find your own quiet space if you needed it…in the house or in the garden.

The house was beautifully clean and very well equipped. The pool was crystal clear and helped us to keep cool in the wonderful summer heat.

The booking and payment process was dealt with in a professional and friendly way. The owners were very helpful in assisting us when it came to arranging our travel.

We did a wine tour and a cookery school - all information being provided by the owners.

We also walked, swam and had siestas by the pool!

For renters with a greater sense of adventure there are many walks and cycle trails in the area. The owners leave comprehensive information about the area and activities available.

We enjoyed all of our meals outside – the BBQ and outside kitchen being well used by us. We enjoyed making the most of the lovely fresh local food that we shopped for at the many local markets (again, a very comprehensive list of local markets being left in the Information File), all washed down by the wonderful local wines.

We booked to eat at a couple of restaurants recommended by the owners. L’Oustalet in Gigondas being our favourite!

Sitting on the terrace at night with the amazing view of Sablet in the distance was just wonderful. The sunsets were pretty spectacular.

We highly recommend staying in this lovely house - it really is nestled among the vineyards.

Spacious property with a good layout . Six adults in our party , plenty of places to sit inside and out . Kitchen well equipped ,Beds comfortable , shower rooms adequate ( Only two toilets ).

It was really nice to eat outside on the patio in the evenings enjoying the sunsets with a gorgeous view of Sablet .

I have given it four stars instead of five for the following reasons:

It is now looking a little tired in places, outside could do with paint .

Swimming pool is a little dated (shallow) and needs some TLC! Fine for young children.. maybe not so enticing for adults.

However it's location is really good , we enjoyed exploring the area and did lots of wine tasting !

Staying at St Amand was a delight.

This was our last week of a four week trip to France and it was the perfect end to our wonderful holiday.

We mainly stayed in and around Sablet. Shopping in the village each morning and relaxing by the pool in the afternoons became our routine.

The weather was lovely for September which meant we used the BBQ most of the time, eating outside taking in the splendid views from the terrace.

We would highly recommend a stay at St Amand: the house is spotless, you have everything you could possibly need, and the owners are very engaging and pleasant to deal with.

We hope to return.

Our family had a wonderful stay at the St Amand villa, located in expansive, open vineyards, just outside of the historical village of Sablet, over the festive-new year period. Of course it was cool, being winter, but the weather remained friendly for us and the skies were blue and clear. The villa is spacious and extremely well equipped for any guests and occasions, with abundant living areas, and very warm and cosy. Following a two week traveling family holiday through the UK, it was a godsend to unwind and relax in such a beautiful and comfortable setting.

We mixed enjoying spending time as a family together in the villa, cooking ourselves in a wonderful kitchen, with exploring the Vaucluse region - the vineyards and farms, the villages, the restaurants, Mont Ventoux, the Roman history, and the more modern Provence history.

Linda, the villa manager, combined with Rosie, the owner, were of great assistance in all aspects of our stay, and made everything very simple for us mostly non-French speaking people, from clear arrival details, and throughout our entire stay. We thank them very much for their attention and hospitality.

We were very content with our stay and would come again anytime.
